The Academy's Senior Health Fellow Cori Uccello discussed the effects of bringing young people into the health care market -one of the most vital components of health care reform. She said that young people, on average, have lower medical spending costs and are a lower risk than older people. Uccello said that the new health care reform law brings in young people and that helps achieve a broad cross-section of risk and stabilizes the risk pool over time.
